ICD-10-CMNondisplaced fracture of medial condyle of left humerus, initial encounter for closed fracture
This code signifies a break in the inner bony prominence at the lower end of the left upper arm bone (humerus) that has not shifted from its normal anatomical position. The fracture is contained within the skin, meaning there is no open wound communicating with the fracture site.
This code is appropriate for documenting the initial treatment encounter for a patient presenting with a newly diagnosed, non-displaced fracture of the medial condyle of the left humerus. This includes situations like an emergency department visit or the first orthopedic consultation for this specific injury.
